Publication number: 20230297595Abstract: Not all facts in a data warehouse are described by the same set of dimensions. However, there can be associations between the data dimensions and other dimensions. By maintaining a set of relationships that are capable of linking the dimensional keys used in existing data to the keys of an associated dimension, a data transformation can be constructed that summarizes by the original and by the associated dimensions in feeds in an analytical data mart (cube) that includes all the dimensions. This cube can then be consolidated and analyzed in a slice-and-dice fashion as though all the dimensions were independent. Data transformed in this manner can be analyzed alongside data from a source that is keyed by all of the dimensions.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2023Publication date: September 21, 2023Inventors: Andrew Kenney, Carlyn Evans

Publication number: 20210174352Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein describe techniques for securing a user's primary account information by providing a mini-vault for transactions. A mini-vault may be generated and associated with specific transactions. For instance, the mini-vault may be affiliated with a payee such that the payee may obtain funds from the mini-vault. Alternatively, the mini-vault may be associated with geographic and/or time-based restrictions. These may limit where and when the user may obtain the funds maintained in the mini-vault. Accordingly, the mini-vault may limit the exposure of primary account information to prevent a bad actor from accessing the funds maintained in a user's primary account.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2019Publication date: June 10, 2021Inventors: Ni Kenney, Andrew Kenney

Publication number: 20190106593Abstract: A method of forming a three-dimensional (3D) article comprises the steps of I) printing a first photocurable silicone composition with a 3D printer to form a layer, II) irradiating the layer with an energy source to form an at least partially cured layer, III) printing a second photocurable silicone composition on the at least partially cured layer with the 3D printer to form a subsequent layer, and IV) irradiating the subsequent layer with the energy source to form an at least partially cured subsequent layer. Optionally, steps III) and IV) can be repeated with independently selected photocurable silicone compositions for any additional layer(s) to form the 3D article. The first and second photocurable silicone compositions are the same as or different from one another. Various photocurable silicone compositions can be utilized for the inventive method, including the inventive photocurable silicone compositions described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2018Publication date: April 11, 2019Inventors: James Andrew KENNEY, Bizhong ZHU

Patent number: 8398814Abstract: A tunable gas flow equalizer is described. In an embodiment, the tunable flow equalizer includes a gas flow equalizer plate having primary opening and a secondary opening. The primary opening may surround a substrate support, and the secondary opening may be configured with a tuner. In an embodiment, the substrate support may be vertically adjustable with respect to the gas flow equalizer plate. The flow uniformity may be fine tuned by adjusting a tuner configured with a secondary opening in the gas flow equalizer plate and/or by adjusting the height of a vertically positionable substrate support plate having an inwardly tapered skirt 528 with respect to the gas flow equalizer plate 520.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2009Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Ajit Balakrishna, Jason Andrew Kenney, Andrew Nguyen, Kenneth Collins
